Notes: Bettane & Desseauve 16/20, RVF 8/10
One of the greatest Banyuls wines! This Hors d'âge cuvée, aged in sostréra (the Catalan word for Soléra), was created by Dr. Parcé in 1925. It is made up of wines from each new vintage, which are added to create a subtle blend within the sostréra aging system. Every three years, a portion is taken and bottled. Discover a unique and exceptional Banyuls, powerful and very complex. A true invitation to travel... to the palace of wonders!

2-star rating (Successful production)

About the estate:

Dr. Parcé had undoubtedly left his mark on the estate and the Banyuls appellation as a whole, which is based on magnificent schist terroirs. The Collioures wines, i.e. the dry wines produced in the same geographical area, have until now given a good idea of this terroir and its potential. The challenge is great for Jean-Michel Parcé, the son, to maintain this level of quality.

About the estate:

Le Mas Blanc has the largest vineyards in Banyuls. It has belonged to the same family since 1639, that of Dr. Parcé, a prominent local figure who passed away in 1998 and who was a driving force behind the estate for many years.
